You guys, Im SO FREAKING PROUD of myself on these. I started from scratch in February and finally finished printing everything this week, and we finished cutting out the StD's out last night! I used cream shimmer paper (after a long disastrous process of getting samples and then the actual order getting f'd up TWICE) & made the entire print files & ran everything on off my mom's office color laser printer (she has her own home businesses).
I made distressing/aged layers in Photoshop & layered them over the heart grid background I made (the heart itself was from an etsy shop download, I'd have to look for which store, but I can post their info if anyone wants it!) Then I put the border together with the other parts & pieces in InDesign & added the text in, printed them, and cut them out one at a time with a sliding style paper cutter. My fiance then punched the corners with a round punch with the hearts & now they're ready to send!
Now I just have to hand print 52 envelopes with our invite lists' addresses! Then do it again for the actual invites! My hands hurt already. I will post the invites + details cards + RSVP cards if anyone wants to see those too when they're done! The borders are slightly different on each card type, but all tie together!
This is the backside - I used the same aging on it as well, so the paper looks old.
